DESCRIPTION
===========
RGB Tester Applet is a freeware Java(tm) applet that lets you
produce a color from a red, green, blue (RGB) value. This applet
is useful for finding RGB values for colors that may be needed by
other applets. Clicking on a text field allows you to change the
number in that text field. Acceptable values range from 0 to 355.
Clicking on the "Test" button shows the corresponding color on the
canvas on the left hand side of the applet. If a number entered in
a text field is out of range, it will be selected.
HTML CODING
===========
Place the following code in your HTML file to use this applet:

create a html document which references the applet. This code
can be found in this readme under the "HTML CODING" title.
The html document and the applet class file should then be
uploaded in "ASCII" and "BINARY" modes respectively. A link
